Passive molecular diffusion. The Cell can't be compared to a hollowed out potato! Meaning that the osmotic flow of water into the sugar filled potato interior pool is unidirectional; while the Cell may control the flow of water, in or out, depending upon it's needs.

What is the diffusion of water through a cell membrane known as?

The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane.


What is the diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called?

The diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis occurs when water molecules move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration in order to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.

Where in the membrane does facilitated diffusion occur?

Diffusion will most likely to occur where there is a high concentration of gas or water then the particles distibute evenly to the area of low concentration. for example if you could smell a turkey cooking in the oven from upstairs without anyone telling you.


Molecules can pass through the cell membrane of the human cell?

Yes, molecules can pass through the cell membrane of human cells through various mechanisms such as simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, or active transport. The size, polarity, and concentration gradient of the molecule influence how it crosses the cell membrane.


How are diffusion and facilitated diffusion similar?

Substances enter a cell through the cell membrane


What is the movement of water through diffusion called?

The movement of water through diffusion is called osmosis. Osmosis is the process where water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration across a semipermeable membrane.
